A mobile IV hydration business is opening June 3 in Stroudsburg which will provide service to Lehigh and Northampton counties.
Premier Infusions & Wellness specializes in providing individually tailored IV vitamin drip solutions on-site, catering to various locations such as homes, offices, gyms, and more, said Lendra James, founder.
James said the company aims to revolutionize the concept of self-care and wellness promotion. She said she has spent more than two decades as a registered nurse, honing her expertise in diverse specialties such as cardiology, neurology, trauma, step-down, and nursing leadership.
However, in 2021, James said she experienced a transformative shift in her purpose. The onset of the COVID-19 pandemic highlighted the pressing need for self-care, wellness promotion, and preventive education within communities.
Witnessing the strain on hospital resources and the lack of attention to staff well-being, James said she chose to redirect her focus to self-care advocacy.
Recognizing her passion for operational management and the business side of healthcare, James embarked on a new chapter as an entrepreneur. In 2022, she launched her own company, leveraging her leadership skills and her certifications as a nurse executive and Doctor of Nursing Practice. By inspiring healthcare professionals and women to follow their entrepreneurial aspirations and prioritize self-care, Lendra discovered profound fulfillment in guiding others towards optimal wellness.
